For me, it's painful to make a movie. It's not my normal rhythm.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't watch my own films very often. I become so jittery and ready to cry... and miserable. I think it's awful.
Making movies is really hard. It's the hardest thing I've ever done.
Movie music is noise... even more painful than my sciatica.
When I started out, I preferred to watch my films without music, as its presence tends to mask the underlying pace of the film. I felt I could feel the rhythm of the film better without music to influence me.
I find playwriting really painful. I love it, or I wouldn't do it, but I don't love the theater as much as I love movies.
Compared to dancing, films seemed to me to be the work of lay bums. There was no physical pain; it was enough to say and imagine what was in the script. It was very easy for me.
The only reason why I tend to pass on a movie is either I don't think I'm right for the material and can't play it honestly, or because of time constraints with personal things in my life.
Everything makes me nervous - except making films.
I love making films more than anything, but it's tough.
To me, discomfort is a gift in the films that I'm making.
